This may be met with sour grapes but not sure I agree with apologizing when posting something off Twitter or u- tube.. I believe we are boomeranging "their" platforms to benefit us Patriots ????!!

The problem is this:
I don't like big tech profiling me.
When you insert a tweet, it loads it from twitter via an iframe html element. This allows twitter to not only track the tweets I read, but it also allows twitter to track the websites I view, and if the posts have a tweet embedded, it show twitter what posts I read.
When you post a link to you tube, I have to make the decision of if I want youtube knowing that I watched that video, and adding it to the profile they have on me.
Finally, don't think for a moment that simply Clearing Cookies or a Private / incognito window will do anything. Big Tech employs browser fingerprinting technology to track users across sessions, both regular and private. For a demo see fingerprintjs.com. If a small startup can do that with 99.5% accuracy, just imagine what Big Tech can do.
So in short, every time you post a link to big tech, instead of reposting it to rumble or converting it to a nitter link, you are giving giving big tech a piece of our users privacy.
